Once we arrive

Once our mobile technician arrives, he will check the situation before taking any action. In the rare case that the problem isn’t incorrect fuel in your car, they will recognize this prior to doing any more work, and just a nominal call out charge will be made.

Our technician will be carrying the necessary equipment and fresh fuel with him so if he discovers that it is really the issue of wrong fuel, he will fix it on the spot. He will drain out the mixed fuel, flush the fuel system, and refill the tank with fresh fuel priced just the same as that charged in the gasoline station. We are aware that you might not be carrying enough money with you, but you don’t need to worry because we accept any common debit or credit card thus you can use them to pay.

Other Services

You should also know that apart from fixing your car with wrong fuel, we provide other services related to fuel. For instance, we do assist our customers dispose of contaminated fuel. Getting rid of this contaminated fuel is not allowed to anyone unless you are qualified to do so. If these fuels are thrown just anywhere, they could degrade the environment and possibly contaminate the local water supply. Not only we are certified by the Environment Agency, we also have the correct tools for disposing contaminated fuel.

Getting rid of the contaminated fuel is also a service of its own which we offer to private and commercial customers. If you have a private firm and in need of our service, we just need full access to your tank, either fixed or mobile or other types of container. We will then do the rest of the work in accordance to the environmental law specified.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

You should also pay attention to the fact that incorrect fuel is not the only issue which makes the engine run in an abnormal way, but sometimes the presence of water in the fuel can also make your vehicle produce too much smoke, stop, lack power, or run irregularly. But water can do a lot of damage which is irreparable, such as damaging the fuel filter which doesn't necessarily happen in case of wrong fuel.

Yet another thing which can cause similar signs is putting AdBlue directly into the fuel tank. AdBlue contamination can also take place if it is used by someone who has no know-how on how or where it should be added. For correct operation of it, AdBlue should be added through its own separate tank and dosing system rather than added to the fuel tank.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
• Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
4. Call us to come out anywhere in Kent to assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
